71 year old dude here who heard this at Armory, Charlotte's Park Center, OD Pavilion, and 'beer joints' in North MB in late 60's. This version and the Showmen are etched in memories. Thanks for posting for my 'way back machine'.
I always dug his voice, when you hear it u know who it is right away. On the same night B.B.King was at the cavelier ballroom,and Chairman of the Board we're down the street at Rogues Gallery.So after seeing BB went and caught Chairman of the Board.I had a better time watching The Chairman of the Board I believe it was in 1987.
I miss General so much. We loved watching him with The Showmen at Tantilla in Richmond in the 60s. Can't believe it's been so long ago.
General, you are rocking it from beyond the grave.
What an absolute treat to find 'The General' singing this great, great song. That's made my week!
Thanks, Ivor!
Happy memories!
